I stand by every decision I've made throughout my career and my life, good or bad, up or down.

All my vocals were recorded at home, which was great for me. You can actually have a studio in a computer program called ProTools. I did half the record with ProTools.

Someone once asked me, `How does Jimmy Page strike you?' I replied, `With both hands, of course...'

With Whitesnake it would have been inappropriate for me to have played Deep Purple songs, although I did at the beginning because I didn't have enough Whitesnake songs.

Most of the albums that have taken long have been related to illness and fatigue or producer problems.

The critics love to get out their knives and dine on Coverdale. But the worse the criticism gets, the more successful I become.

People think that I don't like women.
